i think book 5 has the most funny parts in the series (well, aside
from the fact that it is the longest...). here are some i could
recall:
'I don't believe it! I don't believe it! Oh, Ron, how wonderful! A
prefect! That's everyone in the family!'
'What are Fred and I, next-door neighbours?' said George
indignantly...
'Sirius is being tortured NOW!' shouted Harry. 'We haven't got time
to waste.'
...Though clearly struggling to understand what was going on, Ginny
said immediately, 'Yeah, we'll do it,' and Luna said, 'When you
say "Sirius", are you talking about Stubby Boardman?'
(after the quibbler incident) ...Professor Trelawney broke into
hysterical sobs during Divination and announced to the startled
class, and a very disapproving Umbridge, that Harry was not going to
suffer an early death after all, but would live to a ripe old age,
become Minister for Magic and have twelve children.
'Well
well, I don't know whether you know what - what stitches are?'
'It sounds as though you've been trying to sew your skin back
together,' said Mrs Weasley with a snort of mirthless laughter, 'but
even you, Arthur, wouldn't be that stupid '
'I fancy a cup of tea, too,' said Harry, jumping to his feet.
Hermione, Ron and Ginny almost sprinted to the door with him. As it
swung closed behind them, they heard Mrs Weasley shriek, 'WHAT DO
YOU MEAN, THAT'S THE GENERAL IDEA?'
Indeed, a week after Fred and George's departure Harry witnessed
Professor McGonagall walking right past Peeves, who was determinedly
loosening a crystal chandelier, and could have sworn he heard her
tell the poltergeist out of the corner of her mouth, 'It unscrews
the other way.'
'A couple of people?' said Harry hoarsely to Hermione. 'A couple of
people?' (upon arrival of the students in the hog's head)
'You know what?' Harry said to Ron and Hermione as they entered the
Great Hall. 'I think we'd better check with Puddlemere United
whether Oliver Wood's been killed during a training session, because
Angelina seems to be channelling his spirit.'
